''The Yellow Box: Contemporary Calligraphy and Painting in Taiwan' was conceived by independent curator Chang Tsong-zung as a presentation of the concept of the 'yellow box', a form of appreciating calligraphy and painting and an interpretation of the spirit of literati art manifested in the exhibition designs of a modern art museum. It is a conceptual response to the 'white cube' form of the modern exhibition hall... This exhibition introduces five Taiwanese contemporary (calligraphy/painting) artists, each exhibiting highly individual and novel styles of creation.' - extracted from preface by Huang Tsai-lang.

A number of different formats have been included to show the range and special angles of literati connoisseurship. Several works have also been arranged to create an interactive situration. To open up the imaginative space of literati art, the exhibition has also invited artworks from Qiu Zhijie, Ye Fang and Caroline Chiu, artists working in China and Hong Kong. Artist biographies and notes on the designers of the Yellow Boxes and the other participating artists are provided in catalogue.

黃才郎在序言中提到：「黃盒子：台灣當代書畫展 (The Yellow Box: Contemporary Calligraphy and Painting in Taiwan) 是由獨立策展人張頌仁策劃，為書畫藝術觀賞形態而建立的「黃盒子」概念，針對文人雅士書畫精神的一種詮釋，透過現代藝術館展示設計來呈現。這是因應現代展覽廳的「白盒子」(White Cube) 而提出的一個相對概念。」是次展覽推介的五位台灣當代書畫家各具特色，其風格亦別開生面。

是次展覽呈現了多種表達形式，希望能使觀眾一睹中國文人書畫傳統的豐富意蘊及特有的表達方式。通過精心策劃的展覽安排，展品為觀眾締造了一個互動的交流平台。是次展覽亦邀請了邱志傑、葉放及趙汝賢等中港兩地的藝術家參與，大大開拓了文人藝術的想像空間。本圖錄亦載有「黃盒子」的設計者及其他參展藝術家的簡歷和短評。
